This City Lyrics by Cymbals

The Age of Fracture

2014

Ink-covered fingers
You've been hiding at your desk too long
Ink-covered fingers
You've been hiding at your desk too long

Hand over mouth
Brandy in your tea
The afternoon's all emptiness
The morning's possibility
You're counting on feeling better
Once the seasons cycle through
You're counting on tire arms and legs
Too tired to list and brood

To be undone
To be untied
To be undone
Uncodified

Dust on your doorbell
You've been hiding at your desk too long
Dust on your doorbell
You've been hiding at your desk too long

The early Sun
Your stolen hours
Just waking up by night
Full of drink and desire
You won't be able to make it
Your laces left half-tied
To sleep the only break you get
From your unremitting head

When you're undone
When you're untied
When you're undone
Uncodified

You're counting on feeling better
Once the seasons cycle through
You're counting on tire arms and legs
Too tired to list and brood

To be undone

Dust on your doorbell
You've been hiding at your desk too long
Dust on your doorbell
You've been hiding at your desk too long
